Independent Film about an NBA star accused of rape

no not Kobe. it's an independent film though that's remarkably similar to the Kobe Bryant story.

"A highly respected NBA star's life is turned upside down after a woman accuses him of rape: That's both the story of Kobe Bryant and the plot of an independent film that completed shooting last February, months before Bryant's real-life drama began."

I thought this was kinda ironic.

I dunno....what would be the chances of an NBA star being accused of rape. 1 in 3? Seriously, I heard some radio guy saying that the NBA had been Hijacked by the Gangsta Rap Culture....I thought it was kind of a broad generalization at first, but the more I thought about it, maybe he's right. I dunno really, I stopped watching the NBA a few years ago. College Basketball is much better.

Well it has some truth behind it. There's a lot of rap/hip-hop infulence in basketball. But it only makes sense when the majority of the NBA is black.

That radio guy was Glenn Beck, does a national morning show, funnier than hell, alot of tongue in cheek stuff. But yeah, I would have to agree with him that its just not the same NBA it was 5 or 10 years ago when I use to watch it almost as much as football (NFL).
